A family story in Tuscany
The winery bears the name of Luca Menicucci, originally from Tuscany, who started production many decades ago. The company's history is marked by love and respect for local wines, a passion that runs through the veins of the people of this land and has translated into a recognizable style: gastronomic, clean wines, never excessive, designed to accompany the table.
The vineyard: Alberese, Galestro and the estate's grape varieties
The estate occupies an east-facing hill, characterized by soil composed of Alberese and Galestro, the two classic soils of Chianti: poor, stony, and well-drained, capable of producing fragrant wines with good acidity. Here grow Sangiovese, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Vermentino. The east-facing exposure ensures that the grapes ripen gradually, preserving freshness and aromatic finesse.
The best-known wines
Among the winery's most famous labels are the Chianti Classico DOCG, the Chianti Classico Riserva DOCG and the Governo, obtained using the traditional Tuscan "governo" technique, which gives the wine softness, color, and particularly full fruit. To discover the Sangiovese from this area, you can start with the Tuscan red wines selected by BEVINO.

Food pairings
Chianti Classico is the natural companion for steak, pappardelle with ragù, and Tuscan pecorino cheese. Appassimento pairs well with aged cheeses, braised meats, and dark chocolate. Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is at its best with pizza, arrosticini, and tomato-based first courses. Pinot Grigio accompanies seafood appetizers, risottos, and vegetables. Serve whites at 8-10 °C and reds at 16-18 °C.
